Why i see posts about galaxy mega 5.8 and mega 6.3 in one forum here.? Is it difficult to make separate forums for each one.? It's not about the name is same, i see many apps and tools works only on 5.8 not 6.3, cuz obviously they are different phones even if the same name...

They should have separated them as they are entirely different phones except for the name. Problems can arise when people get them confused as rooting method/CWM/ tweaks etc. may break/brick the phone is used incorrectly. Also, some tweaks for the LTE (i9205) and 3g only (i9200) are already incompatible with each other so it makes it much harder. Separating the Mega 5.8 and the Mega 6.3 forums will help a lot.

Well, hardly cheap - I didn't even know this was available yet, but I see it's on special offer in http://www.ibood.com/ie/en/ today for € 349,95
It's basically an S2 with a slightly downgraded screen, storage and camera using a Tegra 2 CPU in place of the S2's Exynos chipset.
Old news.
And what does this have to so with the GS2? Shouldnt be in this section.

This was something I came across and thought it might be of interest to others. I don't think there is a seperate "R" forum and I thought it best to put it here because of the similarity of it to the S 2 - I believe others have posted 9103-specific stuff in this forum in the past.
Apologies if this post was incorrect or irrelevant - MODS: Please delete if this is the case.
I9103 as like many other 03 series of Galaxy S or Galaxy S2
are always a downgraded version of the flagship model
usually with sLCD and other minor changes
Looking to choose between the One X and the S3.
Upgrading from the Desire. All the devs I'm used to seem to have moved to the One X.
Just wondering who will develop ROMs for the S3?
Never had a Samsung phone before so not familiar with the S2 devs.
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda premium
Well Gadget Check who is the co dev of the best ever ROM for the SGSII said he will be getting a Galaxy S3 so there is just one of the leading developers who will be coming onboard.
The developers of SiyahKernel and NEAK and Chainfire have also already signaled their support for the S3.
The only question is, whether there will be one or two development threads like the S2.

There will be at least two because im sure the retarded US Carriers will want there own branded version to be different. I expect most developers however will either be buying the international version themselves or will be getting one from our community on XDA ... So if u want the most dev support I suggest the international version.

To each their own.
Sarcastic mode on
There will be no ROMS/KERNELS/MODS for S3 and it will rot in hell just like any other low activity devices.
Sarcastic mode off
As soon as i have source i will be cooking. Im an oldie not a newbie. I already have in works. Also i may put together a bulk buy for S3 if interested. I have business acquaintance's at Samsung corporate that can make this happen.The gods of ROM will squat on S3!
We will sort you out!
the galaxy s2 is supported so much in this community, but what about s3? will more moddable or not than s2?
for moddable i mean kernel support, roms and others

Just look around the forums. There are tons of mods and roms - samsung based, aosp, aokp, cm - based, you name it, you can even dual-boot two roms. It's usually the first device to get new goodies.
Not sure what you are saying ??? Have you actually looked at the development and mods ???

You sure? Due the large amount of devices sold, there will always be interest in development. S3 has sold 30 million and I'm sure S4 will do just as well.
Some developers on here have moved over to Sony, but that forum is far from active. Your average user wouldn't want a Sony device.

S II got dual boot much before, long long time ago. But real development is on the S II, much more people using, much more people developing, easier and older, so devs already have a lot of experience there.

Hi, I'm currently thorn between get the Mega or the Note 3. I know the Note 3 has a faster processor and more memory and ram but love the screen size of the mega. don't care too much for camera and screen resolution(720 is good for me) but I'm concern about the processor speed. what are your experiences using the Mega?, any advice?
Thank you in advance.
Try reading the threads on here, there is already lots of advice on the subject.

If you just read through general threads and q&a threads you could figure it out....... Honestly doesn't matter what people say you gotta read or maybe go See and play with both phones at a store.

I said sorry because I know my response was a bit A holish. But now I am sorry because I did misread you post a bit. I had not seen that little word "mega" in your post. My bad.
I am sure something could probably be done. These developers are very talented. Maybe you may want to put some more specifics in there. Which specific device or model are you wanting to port to?

It's okay.
& i own the i9200 , i was hoping to see some galaxy note or galaxy s4/5 based rom for it.
i know theres the Megakat/Fire rom but i like seeing more.
plus its a bummer i cant use stock kitkat for my mega.
my screen broke a while back & when i replaced it my touch screen stopped working with touchwiz kitkat .
so i had to resort to using custom roms. and i still cant find out how to fix the issue
I think myself that it is a driver issue..as replacement screens work with like say the i527m (Canadian version) of the mega on MH1 original firmware and when updated to the NA3 firmware which has knox crap in it the screen still works..but as soon as you go to NE5 firmware (KK) the screen stops responding.
I think they left out some driver/s on purpose so that you have to buy an original screen from then as the driver would only work with that screen..there must be a way to get maybe these other drivers or driver to allow an aftermarket screen..but I am not sure were these driver/s are hiding...going to take a look around and see what I can come with up on these driver/s if possible.

Yeah I find that to be weird that they'd leave out drivers like that. But there are few people online that do sell official screens it'd just be hard trying to figure out whether you'll be wasting your money or not.
Please let me know what you find out about the drivers
